thanks to one of my good buddies for coming over at lunch in this crazy heat to help me get the bench into the boat and the engine hatch installed.

Nice, is that corinthian leather? lol

All I know is it is made very nice. And makes my current factory one look like a beat up public park steering wheel on the pirate ship play fort.

It is a marine specific wheel, designed for boats. This is a factory wheel for a number of European and other worldly companies. I think it will fair the same as the material supporting your ass, lol.

Not a ton of photos today. But i got the port side lower carpet on the shelf. I will say that those contours are a bit of a pain in the butt. Got the tops and footwell carpet cut and ready to install right when i get home tonight. Couple other little things. i was happy with yesterdays progress.

Needs more clamps.

I have a ton of these $0.99 cent clamps in the shop. I keep them in 5gallon buckets. They are so useful with my projects.

In my previous boats, I had always glued in my carpet using 3M #80 spray adhesive. Very easy to use and durable, but not so strong that I couldn't pull the carpet back up. Didn't leave much residue behind either.
